You'll start this mission looking through a camera at enemy troops as you're submerged underneath the ice. Hesh will call you to return, and when you do, he'll prompt you to detonate the charges. After you do, troops will drop down; dispatch them and swim forward, and eventually up and outside. Clear the immediate area of the enemy and move forward. Eventually, you'll be prompted to hook a line up to the catwalk; hit R1 to do so, and R1 again to ascend.

At the top, weapons are free and so are the enemies, so move to cover quickly. Ascend the stairs to greet more troops. After dispatching them, Merrick and Hesh will blast the door into the next hallway. You've got to lay the charges on the next door. Merrick will push you out of harm's way though, as you'll discover the room to be full of enemies. Use your flashbangs to make quick work of them, and then proceed into the control room itself. Before you activate the console, you can pick up the Rorke File, which is atop some file cabinets to your right.

Follow Merrick outside for a firefight. Take care especially of enemies above you on the catwalk, as they have RPG's. After clearing the area, you'll enter a smoke-filled section, so stay ducked to escape the smoke. Ascend the stairs, and you're back outside, where friendlies help clear the way with a chopper.

Approach the next open area as before, clearing the first catwalk of RPG-toting enemies. On the second catwalk are two MG nests; dispatch them quickly to help your team move forward. Follow Merrick up to the command center, and use the console when he prompts you. Use your left stick to keep the levels in green (up or down). Doing so on your first attempt will merit you the "Grindin" achievement/trophy. Then, like a scene out of Starfox 64, run like hell off the oil rig and onto the chopper.
